The corpo! in counsel pointed out that the ‘comm!| n had no right to pass upon questic of law and proceedings were often held up for several years while a discussion of the case went back and forth from commission to jury. It pro- 'vides for increasing the jury from three to five, and to seven when cause is shown for a rehearing. Another bill supported by the cor- poration counsel and Attorney Coldren for the National Capital Park and Planning Commission co.ers the taking of United States land in the District for street purposes.

V. E. Baker. By the Associated Press. Lieut. Comdr. Virgil E. Baker, who made a land exchange in Porto Rico by which the Government contended he obtained rights worth $500,000 for land for which he paid $360, won his case yesterday in the Supreme Court. A decision of the lower courts held that Congress had authorized the ex- change and that it must stand. The Supreme Court refused to review that decision and Baker's rights on the old San Geronimo reservation at San Juan are still good. In its efforts to set aside the transac- tion the Government and Porto Rico had cited the decision in the oil cases as a precedent for invalidating the ex- change. Fraud and misrepresentation were charged. It was contended that Baker induced the Navy Department to obtain the | transfer to it from the War Department | of Fort San Geronimo, on the repte- | sentation that it was urgently needed | for naval purposes, and then to give him a lease on it on representations that the land was useless for any governmental purpose. Baker, however, insisted there was no misrepresentation and that his land had been valued by the courts at $57,- 000, as against a valuation of $24,000 on the Government property. PRINCE DECLARES WIFE HAS LEFT HIM Alexander Bariatinsky, Who Wed Miss Mossalkaja in September, . Considering Legal Separation. Prince Alexander Bariatinsky, 23, of Russia, who was married by Judge Robert. E. Mattingly, September 4 last, to Miss Olga Pleschkova Mossalkaja, whose age was given as 17 years, today complained to Col. William A. Kroll, the marriage license clerk, that he has not seen his wife since September 7, and last heard from her by letier September 30. The prince accompanied the Rev. W. Gindlin, who had been notified by the clerk of his failure to report a reli- glous ceremony for which the prince had taken out a license at the same time that he procured the license for the civil marriage. The preacher niformed the clerk that the religious marriage had never taken place and the prince con- curred in this statement. Bariatinsky declared that the wife had lived with him only two days and then went to New York to accept a stage engagement, but he has been un- able to trace her movements since re- ceiving the last letter. He stated that the age of the girl had been misrepre- sented to him and after the marriage he learned that she is 22 instead of 17 as given in the license application. Bariatinsky gave his address as 1315 Massachusetts avenue. , vised him to see a lawyer if he wished to take steps looking toward the annul- ment of the marriage, which the prince declared was his present intention.

AGE OF JOURNALISM Byron Price of Associated Press Ad- dresses Student Class at George ‘Washington University. “The golden age of journalism” was| forecast for the near future by Byron Price, manager of the Washington bu- reau of the Associated Press, in an address yesterday before the class in journalism at George Washington Uni- versity. Mr. Price's prediction was hased upon the “more understanding attitude” of the modern press toward human af- fairs; upon the increasing quality and scope of dispatches, made possible through the introduction of mechanical improvements in transmission of mate- rial over the wires, and upon the notable response of such organizations as the Associated Press to the public demand for scientific discoveries and other matters of interest in a world of progress. The speaker traced the development of general news service since 1811, when freedom of the press was established and for the first time systematic ef- forts were made to gather news from a distance. New methods were introduced at that time in- making use of thz re- ports of travelers, and these were fol- lowed by the pony express, carrier- pigeon reports and successive improve- ments through the days of code tele- graph, and now the automatic printer, which is faster than any cther means of transmission of copy. He described the expanding service of supplemented by feature articles and photographs, providing material for 1,200 papers, and continued: “The or- ganization had a long struggle, but it has succeeded in establishing itself in the confidence of the country. It has now begun to reach out, and the growth in the last few years is almost un- | believable. ‘There has been a great change in the character of its dis- patches, although not in fundamentals.” A Royal Pair to Wed February 11.
